The Re-adjusters have elected their
Governor Cameron in Virginia by
about 8.000 majority, and a co-oper-
uting Legislature, which will re-adjust
the State debt The new Legislature
will also elect a United States Sena
tor in 1883. The new financial pol
icy, as marked out is to re-fund $20,
000,000 of the State debt at 3 per
cent The question that is disturb
ing Virginia most is the debt ques
tion, and, properly or improperly, it
has got into jmlitics. The advocates
of one side of the question are called
the Re-adjusters; they are the side
that carried the recent election. The
great debt that burdens the State was
niainiy created before the v.-ar. In
18G1 the debt of the State was 11,
000.000. The debt of Pennsylvania
at the same date was nearly as great,
but under Republican ru'.e, here in
Pennsylvania, and under the deve.
opmeut of corporations Rnd mining
ana manufacturing interests the Re
publican management has been able
to reduce it more than one-lialf with
out once befouling their integrity by
a thought of repudiating one cent of
principal or interest Not so, how
ever, ia Virginia. In 1870 the debt
of Virginia had increased to 16,000,
000. During tLe war West Virginia
was created. About 1870 one third
of the debt was assigned to West Vir
ginia for payment, but not agreed to
by the latter new State leaving about
$31,500,000 for the old part of the
Mate and over $15,000,000 for West
Virginia to pay ; but the interest on
the $31,500,000 was not kept paid np,
i.nd by 1X71 the unpaid interest in
creased the indebtedness over two
millions of dollars. It was then pro
posed to pay 4 per cent of the inter
est in cash and 2 per cent in State
certidcates of indebtedness, payable
when the State became able to pay ;
but that plan fell through. In 1877
the debt by the unpaid interest had
reached over $15,000,000, and then
lxgan the talk of a re-adjustment of
the dfbt la 1878 the Legislature
got its hand in, at a repudiation en
actment, re-adjusting the debt, re
quiring the debt-holders to give up
tiieir (i per cent bonds, and take 3
)er cent. 18-year lxnds or 4 per cent.
32 year bonds instead ; but that mea
sure did not pass. In lS7!ra re-funds';!;
act was passed. The principal
and interest of the portion of the
debt assigned to West Virginia was
set aside, repudiated, and the inter
est on the dobt of Old Virginia was
reduced from 6 So 4 jer cent That
is as near as we at this distance can
frill ths position of the Re-adjusters
ib- Virginia. Ofnator ..nation- is one
of the chiefs of the Re-adjusters, and
the new proposition, as stated at the
head cf tiiis article, and as adopted
at the receut election, is to scale the
debt still lower by a new enactment
bv the Legislature, bringing it down
t 'i $2:).000,000 st 3 per cent The
Re-adjusters propose to organize a
new party throughout the South on
the policy as pursued in Virginia. It
i to the interest of every man to
give this Virginia question a calm
and dhpai-sionete consideration, for
by the time the next Presidential
election comes around ft' u&j have
gotten beyond the bounds of Vir
ginia State politics and be as wide as
the Union, and then it will be neces
sary for people to understand it, so
that they may vote intelligently.
GriTEAU, the murderer of Presi
uent uarneio, is a cunning man.
Y hen he bhot Garfield he said that
Arthur will now be President He
knew that the Constitution of the Re
public provides that in case of the
death of the President the only of
ficer that can take his place under
the Constitution is the Vice-Presi
dent His declaration of tha fact
at the time of the shooting proves
now sane he was, and that he had
clear comprehension oi tne conse
quences of his act His declaration
was almost as fiendish as the shoot
ing, for hundreds of honest people,
who do not reason much but quickly
jump at conclusions without think
ing, sprang to the conclusion tliat be
cause the murderer had told what
was true as to who would become
President by the shooting, that there
fore Arthur himself had to do with
the crime, and now the murderer has
the boldness to address Arthur and
ask him to contribute money for his
defence in court nnder the same plea
as above stated, that by the shooting
of Garfield Arthur became President
For money lawyers can be obtained,
but it will be low-toned lawyers that
defend Guiteau. Guiteau is the rep
resentative of a class of men that are
intellectually educated, but destitute
of any and all moral principle, and
when they are detected in the perpe
tration of crime and bad work they
plead insanity. His is the kind of
msauity that hanging will cure.
Hanging will have more effect on the
class that he represents than confine
ment m asylum or prison. The well
being of society requires bis execu
tion, not as a matter of revenge, but
cs a protection from the schemes and
deviltry of such people. Had any oth
er citizen of the Republic than Arthur
been Vice President he would have
become the Chief Magistrate of the
nation by the shooting of Garfield.
It is herd for people of honest pur
pose to conceive of the total deprav
ity of a human being that would out
of revenge shoot a man, as was Pres
ident Garfield shot and then go to
the man that by the circumstanc - f
place under the laws of the lanu oe-
corues President and claim his pro
tection and aid, to shield him from
punishment for murder.
The life of Jay Gould was threat
ened by letter. The man that wrote
it stated the time when the life of
Gould would be taken. The mur
derer, Guiteau, said that he shot Gar
field for the good of the Republican
party; the would-be murderer of
Gould proposed to shoot the latter
for the benefit of the community.
Guiteau claimed an inspiration from
God for the murder of Garfield ; the
scoundrel that wanted to shoot Gould
also said in his letter announcing his
intention of murder, that 44 1 am in
spired and requested by the all living
God to shoot you." He signed his
name 44 Victim" to the communication
Announcing hie intention of tnnrilpj"
Gould put the case into the hands of
New York detectives, and they open-,
ed a correspondence with the would-
be murderer. On Saturday every
letter-box in the city of New York
was put under the watch of a U. S.
letter carrier and a special detective,
and every letter that was put into a
box was looked at and marked. The
officers on duty had been instructed
as to whom the expected letter would
le addressed. The officers went on
duty at 7 o'clock in the morning. It
was not till 3 o'clock P. M. that the
man looked for all day was arrested.
A New York paper relates the arrest
as follows :
44 At 3 P. M. a handsome, elderly
man, with a gray moustache, of mili
tary cut who was dressed in the
height of fashion and carried a light
c".ue, sauntered up to the box at Sev
enth avenue and Thirty-fourth street
and after looking around nonchalant
ly for a moment opened the lid and
dropped in a letter. He then turned
away and walked leisurely down
Thirty-fourth street He had not
turned his back upon the letter box
before Letter-carrier John Healy hail
walked to the spot and opened the
box. He read the address of the let
ter last deposited. It was addressed
to Jav Gould. He raised his hat to
Detective Phil Reilly, who was .wait
ing at the opposite corner. Detec
tive Wood, who was on duty at the
next box, also saw the signal, and the
two detectives started after the hand
some elderly stronger with the cane.
They quickly overhauled him and
took him into custody. He mani
fested snrpri.se and terror, but mads
no resistance. He was taken to the
Police Central Office, in Mulberry
street where he gave his name and
address as Colonel J. Howard Welles,
ol aba t lttn avenue, liie prisoner
acknowledged his guilt
It is time that the country arouse
itself and demand that the courts
impose adequate punishment on the
men that attempt to execute what
they call their Divinely-inspired mis
sion to murder. Welles, in all prob
ability, will go into court with a law
yer, and have the plea of insanity
set Up.
The following dispatch from Wash
ington gives the latest information
relative to the Star Route sei:
ASHrxoTos, Nov. 10. In the crim
inal court this morning Judge Cox
rendere d a decision in the Star Route
cases, discussing principally the ques
tion us to the iniaxuy of the crime
charged, that of conspiracy. The
conclusion arrived at was that the
crime was ru famous, and that the ac
cused should hare been proceeded
against by indictment, instead of by
lniormaiion. ne, tutrelore, sustain
ed the motion expunging the inform
ation from the files of the court and
oraered the discharge of the defend
ants, lhis ends the present cases
against the defendants. The offense
alleged was committed October 1st
1S7S, and the statute of limitation
now bars any further proceedings.
It was because of the lack of time
that proceedings were begun by in
formation instead of by indictment
and they having fallen through, the
Government must either stop its pur
suit of the Star Route jobbers or be
gin anew on some other cases.
Thz trial of Huiteau, the murderer
of President Garfield, was begun on
Monday at 10 o'clock. Tire lawyers
for the murderer asked for a post
ponement of the trial, in order to
make better preparation for defense.
When the lawyers finished their plea
for more time, Guiteau arose and
said that he desired no further time,
that he is ready to have the case tried.
The judge announced that the trial
should proceed. The next thing to
do was to obtain a jurt. Some of
the jurors called were rejected be
cause tliey bad formed nxed opinions,
others because they had conscien-
scious scruples. By the time five
jurors had been obtained the panel
was exhausted. An order was then
issued . for the drawing of seventy
five additional names from the box.
The murderer was about to address
the Court in his own defense, not so
much to influence the Court but
more to have Lis speech printed in
the journals of the country, hoping
thereby to influence public favor in
his interest; but the Court would
not listen to his proposed speech.
The substance of his speech, as re
ported from Washington, is that
nothing is more absurd than that he
murdered Garfield. The President
was not fatally shot Incompetent
doctors finished the work, and they
are responsible for the Presidents
death. The .President was doin
great harm by the unwise use of pat
ronage, and the Lord appointed him
to remove the General. Deity order
ed him to fire the shot He closed
his written speech by an appeal for
money to aid him in for defense.
The following explains itself :
New York, Nov.' 10. Mr. Cyrus
W. I'ield has received the following
letter from Sirs. Garneld :
"Mentor, O., Not. 7, 1881.
Dear 1'biend : Tour letter of Oc
tober 2G is received, giving me the
final statement regarding the fund
for General Garfield's family, so kind
ly supervised by you. As I have
heretofore made only a verbal ac
knowledgment, I now wish formally
to communicate to you, and through
you to all who have contributed to it
my thanks for this generous testi
monial, as an expression of the high
esteem in which my husband was
held, and as a tribute to his memory.
My children join me in this grat
itude and in the desire that as we
accept this trust in their father's
name, we may be able to use it in a
way worthy of him, and satisfactory
to those by whom it has been be
stowed.
44 With sentiments of high and sin
cere regard to you, my dear friend, I
remain very truly yours,

Much

The people are generally well sup
plied with farming implements of
immediate necessity. If they could
be assisted with a little ready money
they could in most cases go to work
at once. According to revised sworn
ttatcmenta there are 2,200 families in
the counties of St Clair, Sanilac and
Huron. Each family should have at
least il00 to tide them over the win
ter, making a total of $220,000 re
quired. The cash receipts of the De
troit Committee as reported to date
amount to $220,000, of which it is
estimated that about $130,000 repre
sents the cash on hand. The De
troit Committee are still purchasing
supplies from their merchants, and
must have expended $200,000 for that
purpose. Acts of lawlessness are in
creasing in the burned district and
a general demoralization is imminent
From the National Live Stock Journal,
There is an increasing demand of
late for good saddle hors je, and many
of the ians this Beaton are paying
much more attention than formerly
to this class. The gaits that espe
cially commend a horse for use in the
saddle are the walk, the fox trot the
single foot and the rack. The walk
is a gait understood by everybody,
but everybody does not understand
that a good saddle horse ought to be
able to go a square mile at the rate
of ne miles an hour. The fox trot
is faster than the square walk, and
the horse will usually take a few steps
at this gait when changing from
fast walk to a trot The single-foot
diners somewhat from the fox trot
and has been described as exactly in
termediate between the true trot and
the true walk. Each foot appears to
move indeiiendently of the other,
with a sort of pit-a-pat one-at-a-time
motion, and it is a much faster gait
than the fox trot The rack is very
nearly allied to the true pacing gait
the difference being that in the latter
the hind foot keeps exact time with
the forefoot of the same side, making
it what has been called a literal or
one-side-at-a-time motion, while in the
former the hind foot touches the
ground slightly in advance of the
fore foot on the same side. The rack
is cot so fast a gait as the true pace,
but is a very desirable gait in a sad
dle horse.

2iow tbat cows are about going mto
winter quarters a bint about feeding
bay may not be out of plaoe. We often
bear dairymen talk as if the height ol
skill in taking care of cows in tbe win
ter was to get all the hay down tbat is
possible to cram into them. 4 'I give mv
cows all tbe good bay I can get them to
eat." is tne boastful remark often beard
from a spirited and aspiring dairyman,
though in doing so be is wasting good
provender withoot promoting tbe best
welfare of his animals. It is a good
thing to feed cows well and to be sure
tbat tbey have food enough to sustain
them fully, but it is neither wise nor
economical to orowd tbem with a great
bulk of bay of any $iiaHty. It is not
wise to crowd any animal with a great
bulk of coarse fockf. Cows should have
no more bay than tbey have time to re
masticate, and if Ibis is not enough' for
tbeir necessities tbey should have some
easy-digesting concentrated food along
with it. Tbe quantity of bay given
should never exceed wbat they will eat
op clear, and twice sdsy is often enough
to giv timo for properly ruminating.
